HT4972 iOS 5.1 issue w/ camera
i updated to iOS 5.1 on iphone 4s -
when I try to open my camera from aps, it opens to a closed shutter and does not unlock
I've tried to reboot, restart everything, but camera will not work
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). If all of this has been tried but the issue still exists then it is time to take the device to Apple for evaluation.

IOS 8.2 update issues with camera on iPhone 5s
Hi everyone, after updating my iPhone 5s to IOS 8.2 i have issues with camera. When i open it everything seems fine, but then when i take a picture, i can not access my gallery for the lower left corner nor i can find any picture saved in my gallery. I have to say that i have enough available storage space. But for some reason not even one photo is there since i have updated my phone.
thanks in advance for any suggestions on how to solve this problem.

How about this.... now that I've update to iOS 8.2, I can not log into the itunes store on my iphone/ipad and also macbook pro. urgh.
As your problem is completely different than the original post, it would be both more effective and more polite to start your own thread with a properly descriptive subject line.
Best of luck. -
My iphone 4 camera shutter won't open. I have already done a restore and I am using the latest iOS. The front facing camera works during FaceTime but crashes when I switch to rear camera. in Camera mode I can't switch to front camera. I plan on replacing this phone with an iphone 5s when it comes out but I need this phone to work until then.
When you did the restore, did you restore from a backup or restore as new? The final step of user troubleshooting is to restore as a new device, not from a backup. If you restore as a new device and the camera still does not function, it is probably a hardware issue. Make an appointment at the Apple Store Genius Bar and have the device checked by a Genius.

I updated iphone 4 to ios 7.1 and the camera doesn't work. what can I do?

First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches after installing new software or apps.
If this does not help, and to rule out a software issue, set it up as new device without using the latest backup, in case that backup contains corrupt data.
Is the camera working after that, restore from the backup. Is the camera still not working, this might be a hardware failure and you'll have to get the phone serviced by Apple:

Issue with camera it says "there is no connected camera" in may macbook pro
issue with camera it says "there is no connected camera" in may macbook pro
I got that error from PhotoBooth, no connected camera.
After messing around with all the usual suggestions (reset PRAM, repair permissions, etc.), I tried plugging in an external USB camera (happened to be a ProScope) and - for no apparent reason - the internal iSight camera sprang to life and has been working fine ever since.
Worth a try - any USB camera should do it. -

Possible GPU Issues With Camera Raw 6.6
Over the past day on my Windows 7 x64 workstation I've done some updates. Specifically:
The Adobe updater brought in Camera Raw 6.6, replacing 6.5.
I updated the to the ATI Catalyst 11.12 display driver version from previous version 11.11.
I allowed Windows Update to apply the dozen or so changes that were pending.
I was just doing some OpenGL testing with Photoshop CS5 12.0.4 x64 and I noticed that under some conditions I saw Photoshop drop out of OpenGL acceleration. Specifically, when I opened a Canon 5D Mark II image through Camera Raw I saw subsequent operations stop using OpenGL acceleration even though the checkmark remained in the [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing box in Edit - Preferences - Performance.
What I did to determine whether OpenGL acceleration was enabled was this: Select the Zoom Tool, then click and hold the left mouse button on the image. When OpenGL is enabled, I see a smooth increase in zoom. When it goes disabled, I see only a jump in zoom level after letting up the mouse button. Also, the [ ] Scrubby Zoom box gets grayed out. As I mentioned, even in this condition, a check of Edit - Preferences - Performance still shows OpenGL enabled.
Just as a control, I saved the converted file as a PSD, and every time I opened THAT file (with a fresh copy of PS CS5 running) and did the same operations I could not reproduce the failure. The difference being I did not run Camera Raw.
Since I wasn't specifically looking for issues with Camera Raw, I am not sure that the problem occurred every time I did run Camera Raw. I do know that when I open images from my own camera (40D; I do not own a 5D Mark II) that the problem doesn't seem to occur. Notably I always open my image from Camera Raw to the largest possible pixel size - 6144 x 4096, as I did with the 5D Mark II image, so it's not an obvious size difference that's leading to the issue. Given other comments of late, I'm wondering if it could be a specific issue with conversions of files from 5D Mark II.
Nor am I sure whether any of the above updates caused it - it might done this before; I don't regularly convert 5D Mark II images. I DO think I would have noticed Photoshop reverting to GDI operation before, since I just noticed it pretty easily, but I'm not completely sure of that either. I do use OpenGL-specific features (such as right-click brush sizing) pretty often.
I'm trying now to find a set of steps with which to reliably reproduce the problem now, and will advise.
-NoelFigures. Now I can't reproduce the problem at all, even after an hour of testing. It probably had nothing to do with Camera Raw.
I wonder if there are latent GPU status indicators and config values stored by Photoshop based on its specific environment that might not be right for the first run (or first few runs) after a display driver update. Hm....

Here is the feature request: Feature#3837401 - [New_Feature_Requirement] [iOS 8] Detecting permissions for camera access
Problem: The camera privacy control is now required by iOS 8 for all regions. With iOS 8 any application that use camera encountered with a dialog asking for permission.
http://useyourloaf.com/blog/2014/07/16/ios-8-camera-privacy-settings.html
But we cannot detect permission for camera access by AIR.
StatusEvent event not firing by AIR: "Note: This event is not dispatched on the AIR platform. It is used only in Flash Player."
Camera - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference
So, if user don't allow use camera our application even cannot detect that. It could make application useless. Also it could cause problems with our applications in AppStore.
Please consider to provide some way to handle camera access. It could be StatusEvent like with Flash Player."Do Not Put iOS8 on an iPhone 4S"

Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash. Tried importing photo from an iPhone 4/ Panasonic DMC-FX50 via USB and SD card but without success. However, importing video from a Flip Mino HD is ok. Can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong
Have you tried a reset by holding the power and home buttons for ten seconds until the apple appears?
Since it's multiple different import devices not working with the CCK, it appears to be on the iPad side...
If the reset doesn't help, try a restore from within iTunes on the computer. -

Tonebox,
I couldn't get my camera to work smoothly

As it turns out,it isn't as pressure sensitive as I have
grown accustomed to, and required a gesture that feels
rather awkward, by comparison to the ones I have been using. -

IPad 3 ios 6.0.1 Causing camera kit issues
Hi there,
I would like to point out that earlier this month we got an update for the iPad 3 to iOS 6.0.1, which I promptly updated mine. Everything was working fine, until yesterday.
Yesterday I had clicked few snaps during the evening and wanted to edit the same on my iPad 3 and transfer the same via the apple SD Card reader camera kit which I have just recently bought a month back. When I connected the SD card reader to the iPad 3, guess what nothing showed up, usually the photo app comes up with the SD photographs.
Apparently the SD card was not recognized by iPad itself. I thought the SD card was faulty so I switched over to the USB connection kit and connected my Nikkon D3000 to the iPad 3 over the usb cable, and guess what, nothing happened here either.
This brought me to the point that, how can both of the connection kits won’t work at the same time, and then it struck me that I had recently done and iOS update to 6.0.1 and that could be one of the possibilities of it not working properly. Normal function of Apple is to kill the old version of the kits / connectors / docks when there is an update of the software, that’s what I have seen and suffered in the past with my docks.
Since my cousin also has an iPad camera kit but is using an iPad 2 with iOS 6.0.1, I used his kit on his iPad 2 and to my wonder the SD Card reader read my memory card and showed up all the photos on the photo app. So I then used his SD Card kit on my iPad 3, after 2 - 3 tries it worked. So at that point I imported all the pics I required.
Now I switched back to my SD CARD READER and tried it on my iPad 3, vola it worked, but it took it time to show up. With few more tries of removing and inserting the connector kit again to check, it worked every single time. I guess the kit I am using got hung or something and just required another one to clean / remove the hang/bug.
Now I wanted the usb connector to work as well, so I used a usb 2 gb Sandisk fat32 formatted stick and made a DCIM folder and added few files from my computer and tried it on, and this time the iPad 3 read the usb stick and showed me the few files on it.
After which I tried to connect the SD CARD reader again to check if it would work after the usb connection, it worked but was apparently showing me the usb stick files on the screen rather than the SD Card pics. On re inserting it, it came back to normal. Same thing happened when I tried the usb connection next time, it would show the SD Card files and not the USB files, but with reinserting it would solve the problem.
And this is the issue I am facing at present, if I use the SD CARD reader first and import my files, the next connection via USB or again SD CARD or via USB and camera cable, it will first show me the images of the previous connection and not the current ones. I have to reinsert it again to clear the old file cache and to show me the new current pics which I want to import fresh.
Soo could you please advice me on the follow:
Why did the connectors did not work at first on the iPad 3 ?
Could there be a bug in the iOS 6.0.1 for the iPad 3, as this problem is not seen on iPad 2?
Do advice.
Connector Details:
USB Connector Model No.: A1358
SD Connector Model No.: A1362
Bought in October 2012.
iPad Deatials:
iPad 3 64gb + Wifi + 3G Cellular, bought in June, Australia Airport.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Ios 7.1 Update Issue. Camera Video not capturing Audio
Hello Every One, I have Updated ios 7.1 after the Update the Camera Video is not capturing the audio.Please help me with the SolutionIo
Hi Aniruuthan,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is not recording sound along with video, I recommend these troubleshooting steps:
Make sure nothing is plugged in to the jack connector.
Make sure nothing is blocking any of the microphones (see the pictures below to locate the microphones on your device)
Make sure none of the microphones is obstructed by dirt or debris.
Turn the iPhone off and then on.
If necessary, find general iPhone hardware troubleshooting suggestions.
For further assistance, contact Apple Support.
